标 题: 我该take cab回家吗?
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Thu Apr 4 21:43:40 2013, 美东)
在soho工作,家住flushing附近,得坐bus才能到。公司规定晚上下班晚于8点可以take
cab回家。我经常9点下班,可从来没take 过cab。跟2位同事说起过,他们都建议我应
该take cab。我在想如果take太多cab,会不会影响涨薪水啊? |

a**********a 发帖数: 231 | 3 黑人的dating market不是winner-take-all的结构,是明显的供需不平衡。男人正常和
不正常差别太大,正常体面的男人远比正常体面的女人少,简单的数字除法而已。
Winner-take-all的结构是在竞争者都是差不多质素的情况下,赢的人的reward远远比
其优势要大。比如是短跑,快那么.01秒就拿到冠军破了记录名垂青史,第二名差那么
一点点,虽然也有银牌,不过过了一个月没有人记得了,虽然从本质来说,这两个人是
没有任何根本区别。
另一个例子就是音乐家。没有唱片普及的时候,大家都是听现场的,好乐手收入多点,
坏乐手收入少点,很正常。唱片出来后,现在基本上在古典音乐领域就是每种乐器几个
大师垄断了大部分的销量。这几个大师和其他没有什么唱片的人可能根本差别只是那么
一点点,甚至是没有本质区别。
如果在dating market,应该是某个吸引力比其他男人好那么一点点的男人就占据大部
分女人才能说得通。哪怕是1:4,都要说这个男人和第二名男人其实差别不大。黑人的
例子不是啊。
此外这个dating上winner-take-all不符合人类本性的。人类本性是弱一夫一妻制(原... 阅读全帖 |

(一)Take the cake
第一季的X Factor电视歌手选秀比赛节目落下帷幕。在比赛结果出来的前一天,电视新
闻上在谈论这次X Factor选秀,主持人说“Who will take the cake?”,我以为获胜
者可以吃蛋糕,后来才知道“take the cake”是指表现更加出色,也即“谁将是优胜
者”之意。
但在美国俚语中,take the cake也可指“更糟”,譬如I've seen bad grammar, but
this takes the cake,意思是见过语法差的,没见过这么差的。
(二)call the shotgun

n***j 发帖数: 184 | 6 How long take to study Step 2 CK and CS, Full timer? Is half year realistic
?
我说一下我的体会吧。CK考试是很难的。Kaplan有2500道题目左右,一个block一天做
完再对完答案大约需要至少4个小时,一天两个block的话,做完需要1个月,然后还需
要10天左右的时间复习错题。所有大约要1个半月弄完kaplan qbank。UW的时间和这个
相仿。以我体会,每天做两个block,看完每一个选项并记下来是极为痛苦和高强度的
。但就我所知,这是我认为最高效的办法。所有做完UW和kaplan需要3个月,然后再模
考,整理资料,再一个月。就是4个月可以去考CK。这是我能想到最快的出一个理想成
绩的时间了,会非常的痛苦。还不包括之前看kaplan note的时间。
至于CS,FA上有50个左右的case。每个case需要练习2遍至少,还需要写note。如果上
一个课的话,然后全力以赴的话,1个月是有人做到的。
所以半年是可行的按上面的说法,但是以我个人的体会会非常得痛苦。
我自己经过了这些,我周围也有不少朋友正... 阅读全帖 |
